Sacred 88 Shikoku Pilgrimage Sites in Tokushima, Japan.

Ryōzen-ji (霊山寺) is a Kōya-san Shingon temple in Naruto, Tokushima Prefecture, Japan. The first Temple of the 88 Shikoku Pilgrimage (四国遍路). Founded by Gyōki (行基) during the Tenpyō era (天平 - August 729 through April 749). Yūben Shinnen (宥辡 真念) identified Ryōzen-ji (霊山寺) as the first place of his “Shikoku Henro Road Guide” (四国遍路道しるべ) of 1687. It is customary to return to Ryōzen-ji as an orei mairi or thanksgiving visit upon completing the pilgrimage.
